Year 4 MTP

Dear Parents, Carers I do hope you've all had a lovely Easter break and are ready and the children are raring for our new term . This half term our main geography topic will be looking at the formation of rivers and mountains. Here the children will be learning firsthand about erosion and deposition on our trip to Park Bridge on the 15th May. Keep an eye out for the letter next week. This topic links fabulously with our science learning which is about the water cycle.


Fabulous Year 4

Year 4 have had a massive amount of certificates given out today, from swimming, handwriting, attendance and merits. Great work Year 4.

Science Fair 2023

Year 6 have had a fabulous day hosting the Science Fair this year. We have worked with KS1 and KS2 to investigate, research and consolidate our scientific learning across the school. We have explored magnets, electricity, scents, fingerprints, chemical reactions, famous inventors, space and beyond, rocks and fossils, light and shadow and human organs.

Thank you Year 6 you were fantastic leaders today and I am very proud of you all. 


Perfect Tudor Pottage

The children in Year 4 have really improved their culinary skills over the last 2 weeks whilst they followed a Tudor pottage recipe. The children to plan, peel, chop, dice and mix different vegetables to make their pottage, adding herbs and relishes to taste.They eventually made 5 different types of pottage: a leek and onion pottage, a carrot and leek pottage, a swede pottage, a swede and leek pottage and a spinach pottage. They all had the chance to taste test each soup and rate them. Their overall favourite was the leek and swede pottage made on Tuesday. Fantastic work Year 4.
